Marks of a True Christian

9

The love unfeigned: abhorring the evil; cleaving to the good;

10

in the love of brethren, to one another kindly affectioned: in the honour going before one another;

11

in the diligence not slothful; in the spirit fervent; the Lord serving;

12

in the hope rejoicing; in the tribulation enduring; in the prayer persevering;

13

to the necessities of the saints communicating; the hospitality pursuing.

14

Bless those persecuting you; bless, and curse not;

15

to rejoice with the rejoicing, and to weep with the weeping,

16

of the same mind one toward another, not minding the high things, but with the lowly going along; become not wise in your own conceit;

17

giving back to no one evil for evil; providing right things before all men.

18

If possible--so far as in you--with all men being in peace;

19

not avenging yourselves, beloved, but give place to the wrath, for it hath been written, `Vengeance is Mine,

20

I will recompense again, saith the Lord;' if, then, thine enemy doth hunger, feed him; if he doth thirst, give him drink; for this doing, coals of fire thou shalt heap upon his head;

21

Be not overcome by the evil, but overcome, in the good, the evil.
